:
mkdir -p ./new # create dir
for file in ./LL-*.wav;
do
isolang=$(basename "$file" | cut -d- -f2 | cut -d_ -f2 | tr -d "()"); # using "-" as split, select field 4 : "zèbre", trim parenthesis
key=$(basename "$file" | cut -d- -f4 | tr -d ".wav"); # using "-" as split, select field 4 : "zèbre", trim extension
cp "$file" ./new/"$isolang"-"$key".wav; # ./new/fra-zèbre.wav
done
